To Renew Trident?

[Godwynn]

Ideologues? Doesn't that mean anyone who has a position - for or against - is an ideologue?

Personally I think Westminster would be in trouble if they had to move the fleet out of Faslane. It's the same problem with nuclear reactors - people like the idea, just not near them.

(I go back and forth, personally)

presumably after returning the Tridents ? Buying from the French surely ?

I think again, this just means everyone is, because what is and isn't practical is the disagreement.

We're talking about nuclear weapons. There's room for a lot of nuance, and ideally civil disagreement. The risk reward is very high, on both sides.

Is it that rude of a word? Seems a civil term, for the Proper Manners While Talking About Murdering Each Other cohorts.

An armed society being a polite society?

 

[Gorbles]

Rude? Didn't say it was. Counterproductive? Probably, in my opinion.

I guess I could see it.

I personally don't use "too good for this world" as much of an insult. I worship one as a third* of God, after all.
